Post your insane gimmick team here

[wraith89]

I'm a ghost. I can post even when I'm offline. How? It's a secret

Anyways, I don't think I can give you a positive comment if you're planning on making that team to work. I can suggest better movesets, but only when I have the time to. Then I will edit this post... because Rollout + Air Cutter = O_O

BTW does it learn Defense Curl? Defense Curl doubles the power of Rollout, btw.

[pokemonfan]

Really! OMG I never knew that...well at least I have a plan for the team unlike I usually do. When I battle you usually its an epic fail. like the time you swept with beedrill. I changed air cutter to gyro ball and added air cutter on the side. My reason...gyro ball is going to help this guy against sweepers because he'll be as slow as slow can be.

[wraith89]

80 base speed actually isn't too slow :-/
I'd go with Shadow Ball and Thunderbolt or something like that.

[pokemonfan]

I was except then it could be shut down by a ground or normal type pokemon. I didn't want that to happen. Plus drifblim doesn't have that many flying STAB attacks so its hard to get good STAB attacks onto drifblim without worrying he'll be shut down by normal types. T-bolt was so going to be in there until I thought about ground types.

[wraith89]

There are no Normal/Ground pokes. And STAB Shadow Ball is great. I see Gengars running Shadow Ball and Thunderbolt... what's wrong with Drifblim using it? It's much better than Gyro Ball and Air Cutter >.>

Thunderbolt hits common pokes very hard for Super Effective. And besides... Pokemon isn't "I use one Pokemon to take down a whole team". No... it's a game with team play. If you feel that Drifblim will be shut from Normal or Ground Pokemon... then have a counter ready at hand. Don't expect one Pokemon to take down everything :-/

[pokemonfan]

you make a good point. I guess I could change it...yes I will but I'm still adding the other moves on the side. plus this is a gimmick team I'm not actually expecting to win with this. Maybe a couple of pokes but win? I dont think my balloons could win they should stick to the party not the battles. I'm going to go edit the post now.

[wraith89]

LOL. Darklord made a team of 6 Drifblims with Explosion XD

[pokemonfan]

I know that...I battled him and the moment I started winning he played suicide and just exploded when it didn't effect the pokemon I had out there, drifblim. Look at it this way wraith89 at least I put together a team that might take down a poke or two. Usually I lose horribly. Plus, I somewhat think I should've started with wigglytuff because she can know the move stealth rock.

[wraith89]

It's time you learned how to play to win PF. It'll take time... but since that's a gimmick team... what am I supposed to say? >.>

[pokemonfan]

Exactly. Do you want to battle me with it? I could try, since you think its a joke I'll assume you'll use your project pokemon team.

[wraith89]

Go on Shoddy... and possibly. I need to teach you a lot... but you need to cooperate. There are many people here learning, but most of them DO NOT cooperate >.>

[pokemonfan]

OK fine, I'll be on shoddy and i have to make my party balloon team so give me a moment.

[CuleX]

I'd like to suggest the following addition to any team who wants it:
/
Shaymin/Skymin [Level 10, so it possibly goes unnoticed under all the 100s] @ Focus Sash
Timid
EVs: 252 Speed

• Endeavor
• Quick Attack

This one is mainly built around surprise. Skymin is not recommended for being in Uber tier, but people generally don't expect Shaymin to show up due to its AFAIK previous Uber status.

[sparkdreamer]

I call this team: "This is why we have clauses"

Play with this team with no clauses on.

Spoiler

Metagross@Choice Band
6 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd
Clear Body
Adamant Nature
- Explosion
- Meteor Mash
- Fury Cutter
- Mud Slap

Boom. Right off the bat. Don't even stop to think about it. They won't be expecting it.

Well, actually, I lied. Use Meteor Mash if you're facing a Ghost lead or a lead with Damp.

The opponent should have lost one Pokemon by now.


Articuno@Leftovers
252 HP/6 SpA/252 Spd
Pressure
Timid Nature
- Substitute
- Ice Beam
- Mind Reader
- Sheer Cold

Substitute if you feel threatened, and then Mind Reader + Sheer Cold to take down as many enemies as you can. You don't have to be a king to get them all to hit. Also take care and be on the lookout for enemies with Sturdy. Ice Beam is there for those opponents that wise up to your game and switch every time you use Mind Reader.

The opponent should have lost two to four Pokemon by now. If they lose any more than that, then you obviously won this.


Smeargle@Focus Sash/Leftovers
252 HP/6 SpA/252 Spd
Own Tempo
Timid Nature
- Spore
- Spider Web
- Mind Reader
- Sheer Cold

Smeargle uses the same tactic as Articuno; Mind Reader and then Sheer Cold. Take advantage of your access to Spore and Spider Web.

The opponent should have lost three to five Pokemon by now, hopefully with at least one sleeping Pokemon.


Smeargle@Focus Sash
252 HP/6 SpA/252 Spd (EVs don't really matter)
Technician
Jolly Nature
- Trick Room
- Endeavor
- Extremespeed
- Spore

Be sure to set this Smeargle to level 1. Its job is to set up Trick Room for Shuckle and also to take down the opponent. Set up Trick Room straightaway. Then you have two options: switch to Shuckle, or wait a while and use Spore, Endeavor, Extremespeed. You could also try using Spore continuously to ensure that the opponent's Pokemon are all in dreamland, reusing Trick Room when necessary.

The opponent should have lost three to five Pokemon by now, hopefully with at least two sleeping Pokemon.


Shuckle@Life Orb
IVs: 31 all but 0 Spd
252 HP/252 Def/6 Atk
Sturdy
Naughty Nature
- Power Trick
- Gyro Ball
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge

This Shuckle is nearly the same as the one HottSushiz posted up earlier. Power Trick against a sleeping opponent (they are all asleep, right?) and let the sweeping begin.

The opponent should have lost by now.


Claydol@Leftovers
252 HP/6 Def/252 Spd
Levitate
Careful Nature
- Rain Dance/Sunny Day
- Rapid Spin
- Stealth Rock
- Psychic

Claydol here is your "insurance" and you can send him in at any time necessary. It can Rapid Spin away Stealth Rock and Spikes, set up Rocks, and also it can change the weather to protect your team's Focus Sashes.

This team could possibly work, so I appreciate feedback and corrections. :D

Well, for one, your team hates one of it's own gimmicks: sleep. A Yanmega, with a little luck, will likely run right through you with Hypnosis. And while Mind Reader -> Sheer Cold is cool, it's a two turn set up... in which something like Deoxys or a similarly fast sweeper will destroy you. I probably haven't scratched the surface, but there you go. It looks like an interesting team to try nonetheless.
